Who thinks there's something fishy about likes on YouTube?
 
I've noticed something really suspicious about likes on YouTube videos.

Comments as banal as 'Great video. I like it' gets 147 likes.

'Thank you' gets 22 likes.

'Nice' gets 56 likes

But there are some really interesting comments with ZERO votes. Bizarre.

I cannot believe there were 56 people thought thought 'nice' was so fantastic it deserved an upthumb.:joker:

Yeah I think there are a lot of bots upthumbing videos, on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

I mean, that's why Musk decided not to buy Twitter. Too many fake accounts.:nono::shocked::shocked:

i sporadically like something, mainly just music from newer talent because they can use that some extra i think

Can't Say I've noticed much , but I've seen both minimum effort & maximum effort comments get a load of likes :shrug: .

Maybe, sometimes.

On the higher scale I see comments get crazy likes 2.7k for the dumbest remarks that just pass me by. :shrug:

Information about how to restore a (version of the) dislike counter on YouTube.

Youtube video


(Basically there is an unofficial Chrome plugin, but it might come with some risk.)
